Symptoms

When doing the Reconciliation Account Auditing, OIM is doing the snapshot / audit per each operation of the account/entitlements.

For example, a user has been provisioned to the ADUser account with 100+ groups. When the target has the groups OU changes, during the account reconciliation, there will be 100+ snapshots taken and inserted into the UPA table.

In production instance, the user may have been provisioned to many accounts with thousands of groups, each snapshot of the user will have a large amount of data, such as 1MB, and saved in the physical storage. If 100+ snapshots taken in one recon event (account reconciliation for this single user will be one recon event), the UPA table size will be growing dramatically fast, and the archive will not work as in realistic consideration.
